TRASGO Project : Ingredients. TimTrack
TimTrack is a fast LSM algorithm for the
tracking of charged particles providing:
- Particle arrival position and slopes
(X0,X’,Y0,Y’)
- Particle arrival time (T0)
- Particle velocity (V)
We call SAETA (Smallest ArrangEment of daTA)
each set of the 6 parameters (direction, offset time
and velocity) provided by the algorithm DAQ

Primary Cosmic Rays: Energy and Mass
Knee
[CCOU02]
The scatter of points on a plot of the average logarithm of the nuclear
mass number of the primary cosmic rays versus energy clearly shows
the need for more input from accelerators.

25.
Trasgo-Meiga Project. Summary of Benefits
-- Development of a new technology detector:
-
-- Analysis of Cosmic Rays around de Knee
- - Test of new technologies useful for HEP and N. Physics
- - TimTrack:
- - MIDAS:
-- Development of a small facility in the campus of the U. Santiago de
-Compostela
-- 1st. step of a bigger hybrid (+ some P. Auger tanks or other
- detectors) facility? Possible seed of a new CR facility in elsewhere
- (F.ex. H.E. Gamma Array in Pirenees or S. Nevada) ?
- Other fields: Climate studies, Muon reconstruction improvement in HEP
Spectrometers, CR dosimetry in Computing centers …
- - Training of Ph.D and PostDocs in the development of detectors and new
- technologies and techniques related with the detection, measurement
- and reconstrucion and analysis of EAS
